Adventures in Teaching Kids How to Code

Volunteers’ Week 2016

Today is the start of Volunteers’ Week, a time to celebrate the amazing achievements and contributions of volunteers across the UK who are working to help their local communities.

So of course we also want to take this opportunity to celebrate the work of Code Club’s volunteers – the teachers, students, parents, librarians, community workers, coding enthusiasts, and all round superstars who dedicate their spare time to help children learn about coding and digital making.

Over the past four years there have been a total of 5,184 active Code Clubs registered in the UK, reaching an estimated 72,000 children, and providing them with an opportunity to learn to code for free.

Without our volunteers, we wouldn’t have been able to achieve all this – so we want to say a great big thank you to every one of you. You totally rock!

Over the coming days, we’ll be celebrating the work of our volunteers in a series of blog posts. If you would like to share your volunteering story, please do get in touch with our team by emailing hello@codeclub.org.uk
